Second, pray for your daily bread. Ahmen.

Back in the year of 1918, a bearded, saintly, old man, with foot-scrapers to sell, called on Eric Enstrom at his photography studio in the tiny mining town of Bovey, Minnesota.

From this chance encounter a world-famous photographic study was created. Today Enstrom’s picture Grace, showing the elderly peddler with head bowed in a mealtime prayer of thanksgiving, is known and loved throughout the world.

The Enstrom photo "Grace" has hung in our family homes for generations. Considering it was taken during the Spanish flu. Worthy of consideration.

Thank you B.
